Some interesting choices - nice to see Keane and Heaton getting mentions!

Keane and Van Dijk are the only defenders mentioned - that is good company

Waddle: "Kante is brilliant at spotting danger but he is not a player I would pay to watch. The hardest part of the game is to create and score, and to entertain, and Hazard has done it all unbelievably well.

I wouldn't agree at all with this comment from Waddle. I think it's far harder to find a player such as Kante than a creator or finisher.

What Kante does may not be as pleasing on the eye but it's genius in its own right.

As good as Kante is it's Hazard for me - outstanding season

Kante for me. Think if he played for us, we'd be close to a European place by now instead of nervously (well me anyway) looking over our shoulder.

I think Chelsea would have won the league without Hazard. I'm less convinced that they would have done so without Kante.

No denying Hazard has had a good season but Kante for me has been brilliant again. He's like having two players in your team.

has to be an attacking player in my books. Defensive players make sure you don't lose games (Kante, Keane) etc.... even though they are fantastic.

I would probably go for Deli Alli. Great all over the park and affects both score lines
